Unchanged files having changes continues to boil my backside ...

This IDE script is still the best workaround I’ve found. It’s supremely annoying, but less annoying than dealing with all the changes. You only need to run it once per project load.

Module Toucher
  Sub TouchPath(Path As String)
    Var ProjectItemsString As String = SubLocations(Path)
    Var ProjectItems() As String = ProjectItemsString.Split(ChrB(9))
    For Each ItemName As String In ProjectItems
      Var ItemPath As String = ItemName
      If Path <> "" Then
        ItemPath = Path + "." + ItemPath
      End If
      
      If SelectProjectItem(ItemPath) Then
        Var ItemType As String = TypeOfCurrentLocation
        If ItemType = "Window" Then
          Var HasBackgroundColor As String = PropertyValue("HasBackgroundColor")
          PropertyValue("HasBackgroundColor") = If(HasBackgroundColor = "True", "False", "True")
          PropertyValue("HasBackgroundColor") = HasBackgroundColor
        End If
      End If
      
      TouchPath(ItemPath)
    Next
  End Sub
End Module

Toucher.TouchPath("")
